Is Yahoo and Yahoo Answers on the edge of "closing the doors" for good?

It does appear that way for the Answers part of Yahoo. We don t know that and they sure would not let us know in advance but as long as it remains active no matter the content it is still going to allow them to get ad
revenue and that is what matters to them.

I doubt they care about just what the site has become and likely never bother to look.
As long as the Y!A site is enabling them to sell ad space they will keep it open.
The basic functions are still working as in we can ask and answer questions so that helps the site look active and helps the ad revenue so anything else is not that important to Yahoo.

This is Yahoo and nothing gets fixed for the better that affects those who use the site, maybe it is far down their list of things that matter they may or may not ever fix what is broken.
They keep making changes but none are made based on what users are asking for but by those who never actually use the site.
Maybe they need new technicians that would be better at fixing things.

Q&A may be closing. They are not responding to deleted posts or much else these days. I have reported the same trolls for a year with nothing being done. They get their money for this site from adverts but most of us have blockers, so people may not be willing to advertise here so much. Less income means less staff to man the site.

Simple answer is no.

Complex answer, is yahoo like yahoo answers, yahoo groups and yahoo mail and yahoo is the company it self. Apple and google plan and push for the future. Well Yahoo is still trying to catch up.


The problem is the company. Yahoo can hardly deal with glitches we get every month here that alone bring out new stuff or add more features.

Yahoo does not have map thing like google maps, no street view, no chrome or firefox thing, no new group or message board so on.

So yahoo groups and yahoo answers have been left in dust these years.

collectively They seem to be adding new ways to the Yahoo
this is all that is going on at this time.
